and the first generationX1,X1the second generation has been redesignedX5,X3orX1is the hale and hearty style of a metal box, andX1second generation also uses an integrated aluminum alloy body, the overall style is more rounded, and the arc design on both sides makes the grip feel better. At the same time,X1II also has three colors of silver, black and rose gold, which is much more interesting than the single tone of previous models.

the version we received is silver, which should be regarded as the most mainstream player color. The front of the fuselage has a piece2-inch screen with a resolution320×240, the accuracy is quite satisfactory, after all, it is an entry-level positioning machine. Below the screen is the control keypad, key layout and previous models.Xseries of players are similar and familiar with the operation.

look at it from another angle,X1the second generation of Yan value is really good.

AlthoughX1is similar to the layout of previous generations of products, but this time Feiao once again offered black technology, and the turntable was changed from the past mechanical turntable to a unique touch turntable. The sensitivity of this touch dial is good, which ensures the operation experience. The touch dial is connected to the system software through capacitive touch sensing. At present, the combination of the dial and the software is not in the best state. Compared with AppleIPODturntable, but the advantage is that it is not as worn as the mechanical turntable, so the reliability is better.

X1are all concentrated on the left side, namely the power key and the volume key, which is very convenient to operate with one hand.

the bottom of the machine is designedTFCard slot,USBAPI and3.5mmjack.TFcard maximum support256GBcapacity, and3.5mmjack not only supports earphone output, but also supports linear output through software switching, which is convenient to connect more audio devices.

The top, back and right side of the machine are clean and no function keys are designed.

Feiao's accessories have always been the usual features, with stickers and personalized stickers.

As an entry-level player, we are very interested inX1The screen accuracy of the second generation does not need to be too big a fantasy. Objectively speaking, it can be seen.

operating system still maintains a simple design style, easy to use, and the firmware is updatedFW1.3.3.

audition, X1 II was matched with 4 earplugs and 1 Bluetooth speaker.

is experiencing FeiaoX1Before the second generation, we upgraded the firmware to the latestFW1.3.3, during the audition, except for the occasional problem with Bluetooth, everything was played smoothly. Tests found that FeiaoX1can play smoothly24bit/192kHzlossless music format with sampling rate, automatic track splittingCUEFLACandAPEfile, commonMP3,AACand other music formats are not supported.DSDformat.

Bluetooth playback:FeiaoX1Second Generation Built-inF1C81Chipset, which supports Bluetooth4.0mode and dual mode transmission (transmitting and receiving signals at the same time) are very convenient when connecting Bluetooth headsets and speakers. This machine does not use Android, and its Bluetooth function is not easy to design. In the previous version of the firmware, its Bluetooth stability is not very good, mainly manifested in the weak Bluetooth wireless distance and anti-interference ability, but in our useFW1.3.3firmware, this problem has been improved to some extent.15square meters of unblocked room measured, its Bluetooth transmission is relatively stable, the sound will not be intermittent. When wearing a Bluetooth headset with you, you don't have to worry about stability. In the further range, it is still impossible to achieve the stability of smart phones. In addition, in the previous version of firmware, there was no sound after connecting to Bluetooth occasionally, and it would take a period of time to make a sound. We tested it many times in the new firmware, and this phenomenon has not occurred again. Moreover, the volume cannot be adjusted via Bluetooth before, and the new firmware is already available. In terms of its sound quality, FeiaoX1The second generation does not support the HD protocol.apt-x, but its music output quality and timbre are still satisfactory. The tone is natural, the style is straightforward, and there is no obvious trace of modification. Such Bluetooth output capability will not deteriorate the sound quality of Bluetooth speakers and Bluetooth headsets.

In Bluetooth mode, FeiaoX1II also provides a car mode, the principle is to connect the car audio system via Bluetooth to make it an external player. When the car is turned off, the player will automatically shut down and will not waste electricity continuously.

listening experience:audition FeiaoX1the second generation, we used SennheiserIE80,UE900, Flying Sirius andFinalAudio F7200. FeiaoX1the second generation of sound plasticity is quite strong, we are matched with high-end earplugs, but it can drive their own characteristics, but its promotion is not big, and there are limitations when control is needed.

is matchingUE900andF7200such a moving earplug, flying proudX1shows good resolution and delicate timbre. The high-frequency sound is gentle and non-stimulating, and the cold feeling and distortion can be controlled in place. The high frequency extension is not very stretch, and the sound is slightly tighter. Its treble density is good, even if it matchesF7200such slightly thin earplugs do not appear particularly cold when playing back strings such as high-frequency vocals and guzheng. The connection between medium and high frequencies is very good and the transition is natural. If you changeUE900, FeiaoX1the sound of the second generation is more matched, and the high-frequency texture and thickness are excellent. InThe intermediate frequency part is stable and matchedUE900such moving iron earplugs can also obtain medium frequency effect with rich texture and high density, which can be controlled. When playing back vocal music, the bottom of the sound is thick enough to clearly explain the emotion. After replacing Flying Sirius, its sound texture and density can be greatly improved, and the sense of space and clarity can reach a high level. Although flying proudX1the second generation is not enough to give full play to Sirius's strength, but it has begun to take shape. In the low frequency part, FeiaoX1The low-frequency control of the second generation is not very good, and it cooperates with SennheiserIE80and Flying Sirius, some are powerless, and the bass is not fluffy and stretched enough. However, it has a rich sense of low-frequency quantity and no delay in speed, so that even if it cannot show the dynamic effect, it can obtain stable and full sound quality and relatively strong atmosphere when playing back popular music with more low frequencies.

is written at the end.

as a price only666yuan HD lossless player, FeiaoX1The high color value and high cost performance of the second generation are undoubtedly the biggest features. After adding touch dial and Bluetooth mode, its selling points are more abundant. Because its firmware is not perfect enough, there are more or less minor problems, but the overall experience is still quite smooth, and conventional listening applications will not encounter puzzling problems. In terms of its sound quality, FeiaoX1has a natural timbre, high fullness, good listening resistance, and good performance even when driving high-end earplugs. This is commendable.
